After a long pause, Lin Fan finally gave a sigh and said, "Alright, we'll save them for you."
Then he turned to Xiao Tu and said in a cold voice with a cold glare, "As for you...We'll see what the truth is after we save those girls and you'll get what you deserve."
Xiao Tu gave a gulp as he felt a chill run down his spine, but he still had a trace of relief in his eyes as he could tell that Lin Fan was still going to make his move and save the girls.
Xiao Tu just gave a grateful nod and said, "As long as you save my little sisters, you can do whatever you want with me."
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at Xiao Tu.
For some reason, it seemed like Xiao Tu wasn't lying to him which confused him slightly.
But for now, none of that mattered.
Xin'er was right, there were five little girls who needed their help right now and that was the most important thing. Whether Xiao Tu was telling the truth or not wasn't important right now.
That didn't mean that he would trust Xiao Tu.
So with a flick of his hand, there were vines that suddenly came out of the ground and wrapped around Xiao Tu.
Xiao Tu was shocked to see this, but he wasn't able to do a single thing since this was something that Lin Fan did. There was the disparity in cultivation, so he could only watch as the vines wrapped around him.
But with the last bit of strength that he had, he said, "Please, please save them."
Xin'er looked at Lin Fan with big wide eyes, but Lin Fan still had a cold look on his face as he didn't trust Xiao Tu. In his eyes, this was nothing more than a last attempt to save himself by appealing to their heart.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat didn't mean that he wouldn't save the girls since Xin'er was right. He could tell that they were indeed being held captive by the loan sharks and they were innocent, so he would do what he could to save them.
It was easy for him to take care of them since he had already sent his puppets in.
With Brainy's new cultivation, she could easily send her vines through the entire building and with the puppets playing as eyes for her, she could easily find anyone that was hiding.
So with this, Lin Fan let Brainy out and let her do her thing.
Dongfang Ming couldn't help being surprised by the appearance of Brainy, but he didn't say a thing since he knew that this wasn't something that he should ask about.
Brainy released her spiritual sense that linked up with all the puppets in the building and soon she was able to see everything that was happening inside.
The leader of the loan sharks was nothing more than someone in the Fragmented Soul Realm, so there was nothing to worry about in terms of strength. The only thing that he would have to worry about is if there was anyone behind these loan sharks.
After all, to establish this kind of business in the capital, it was certain that there was someone behind these loan sharks.
Lin Fan didn't have the ability to investigate this since he didn't have any foundations set up in the capital at all. However, that didn't mean that he was helpless when it came to this.
So he turned to Dongfang Ming with a meaningful look that Dongfang Ming immediately understood.
After a moment to think about it, Dongfang Ming said, "Young master Lin, you should know that there's an unspoken rule in the capital and your request is asking me to break that unspoken rule."
Lin Fan didn't want to beat around the bush with him, so he said, "Consider it as doing a favour for me."
As expected, Dongfang Ming's face lit up the moment that he heard this and he immediately said, "Very good! With young master Lin's words, then I'm much more assured."
He opened up his wrist watch again and with just a few simple flicks of his hand, he turned back to say, "It's done. You can go as wild as you want now."
Lin Fan gave a nod before turning back to Brainy.
Brainy had been waiting for this confirmation from Lin Fan and now that she had received it, there was no reason for her to hold back anymore.
With a single thought, the vines that had spread all over the building suddenly came out of the floor and walls of the fifth floor.
The loan sharks that had been inside their offices were shocked to see vines suddenly popping out all around them, but they weren't able to react at all as the vines wrapped them up. Even the boss of the loan sharks couldn't do a thing as he was suddenly wrapped up and trapped by these vines.
The five girls that were being held captive in a supply room also weren't spared this fate, but that was more to protect them than to hurt them.
The vines that Brainy controlled could be used to protect and to attack. These were vines that were created from Brainy's life energy and laws, so they were much stronger than normal vines.
Just as how the people inside couldn't break free, the people outside also couldn't break them, which made them perfect for protecting people as well.
Once the girls were trapped in vines, Brainy pulled them out of the building with the vine system that she had created and brought them in front of Lin Fan. At the same time, there was also a much larger vine mummy that was carried out.
When they were placed in front of Lin Fan, the vines around the five girls suddenly shrank back before disappearing.
The girls that had been exposed to the sudden light after being trapped in the dark closet squinted their eyes and took a while to adjust. However, when they did and saw Lin Fan standing over them, they immediately started trembling and moving back.
Xin'er was the one who acted first before Lin Fan could and came up to the girls to take their hands as she said, "It's alright, you're safe now."
Perhaps they wouldn't have believed it if it was Lin Fan who said it, but seeing this girl who was around the same age as them comforting them, the effect was quite good.
The girls stopped trembling and trying to run away, but they still looked at Lin Fan with a wary look.
Lin Fan didn't mind since he had already expected this. He just gave a flick of his hand and the vine covered mummy that was Xiao Tu was suddenly thrown in front of the girls.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing this bundle of vines being thrown at their feet, the girls suddenly jumped back and looked at it with a fearful look. But when it was opened to reveal Xiao Tu, they all revealed surprised and worried looks as they said, "Big brother!"
All of them suddenly ran forward and anxiously looked over Xiao Tu's body, looking for any injuries.
Xiao Tu was currently unconscious because his body had finally run out of adrenaline. He had already been running on his fumes when he was being beaten by the thugs, the only thing that had kept him going was his desire to save his little sisters.
But then when he was trapped in the vines with nothing to do, even if his mind was unwilling, he couldn't stop his body from shutting down.
Of course, he wasn't dead or heavily injured since Lin Fan had already cured him with a pill. He was just currently in a deep sleep to recover the energy that he lacked.
After the girls made sure that there was nothing wrong with Xiao Tu, they came in front of him and glared at Lin Fan as if they were trying to protect him from Lin Fan. One of them also asked, "What did you do to our big brother? If you did anything bad to him, we won't forgive you!"
Lin Fan didn't care about this threat at all as he turned his attention to the other person wrapped up in the vines.
With a wave of his hand, the vines receded and the person inside was revealed. This person was the boss of the loan sharks who looked every single bit of a stereotypical gangster.
This boss was shocked to suddenly see the light and looked around him in a daze before finally noticing Lin Fan. He scooched back a bit on his butt and said in a cautious voice, "Who are you?"
Lin Fan ignored this and pointed at Xiao Tu as he said, "Do you know this person?"
The boss was completely confused as to what was happening, but hearing the pressure in Lin Fan's voice, he didn't dare act up at all. After all, he had seen his subordinates being wrapped up in the vines before they also wrapped him up, he knew that the person in front of him was an expert.
So he turned to look at Xiao Tu and honestly said, "I don't know this person at all, I have nothing to do with this person!"
Seeing the look in his eyes, Lin Fan could tell that he wasn't lying. It seemed like Xiao Tu really wasn't working with the loan sharks and he had been telling the truth.
So Lin Fan no longer had a need for these loan sharks.
Before the loan shark boss could say anything else, Lin Fan waved his hand and the vines wrapped around him before pulling him away again.
